I'll be watching at home. Looking forward to it. Cheering for ManU but it's a 'no-lose' final as far as I'm concerned.

Detroit vs Pittsburgh starts Saturday everyone saying it's going to be the best Stanley Cup final in at least 20 years.

I'm not normally a fan of NHL hockey (I like major junior better) but I might even watch this year.

Scored during the 90 minutes and another 40-odd goals this season. I think he's done his bit.

so happy when JT missed the penalty. His brother Paul agreed to buy our house in Brentwood this time last year. And then proceeded to waste our time for 4 months (while we later found out he was still viewing other houses) before pulling out in August 07. Obviously in those 4 months the fortunes of the housing market changed massively as that was about the time Northern Rock went tits up. We finally completed the other week for £80k less than the price agreed with Mr Terry. Less than a weeks wages to a footballer of his standard.

So that coupled with me being a Liverpool supporter and detesting both teams, i was routing for the dirty mancs and was delighted to see John Terry crying.

In fairness though, it doesn't take a lot to make a footballer cry ;)

You don't get that kind of thing in hockey:thumbup:

Was his brother Paul a chav like JT.

Did anybody think that JT spit at the Man U player at the time Drogba got the red card.

Big time chav. Married to Paul Konchelski's(former West Ham now Fulham) sister Sarah. Paul plays for Leyton Orient but you would think it was him playing for Chelsea the way he acts.

It would appear Chelsea were none too pleased with the job their manager has done this season.

Even made the headlines on the TSN website.

A couple of people did, but no matter how many times you watch the youtube clip - which is identical to the one broadcast on telly - you see no spit and no outraged reaction from Tevez.

He puts his hand to his neck and some people claim to have seen the ref's whistle (dangling from his wrist) make contact.

For me, if I feel something make contact like that and then put my hand there, it's to look at the hand and see what it was. Tevez didn't do that.

Most crucial of all is that the ref was right there, just a foot or two away and he was looking directly at the players' heads. He just could not have missed it.


I think it's just mischief making from anti JT footie fans. I don't like him either but I think the only thing he spat was abuse. Bad enough, but I think spitting is really low and I don't think he did that.

I had a copy of the draft contract and JT was somehow involved in the purchase as such the house was going to be in 3 names, Paul, Sarah and JT. Therefore i can feel good about any misfortune he has.
